eliminated‚ that is‚ . This statistic ranges from -1 to +1. Absolute values above 0.2 indicate great skewness (Hildebrand‚ 1986). Skewness has also been defined with respect to the third moment about the mean: ‚ which is simply the expected value of the distribution of cubed z scores. Skewness measured in this way is sometimes referred to as “Fisher’s skewness.” When the deviations from the mean are greater in one direction than in the other direction‚ this statistic will deviate from zero in

Running Case Wellness Intranet Project Chapter 7 Project Cost Management Case Task 3: Assume you have completed the three months project. The BAC was $200‚000 for this six-month project. Also assume the following: PV = $ 120‚000 EV = $ 100‚000 AC = $ 90‚000 a. What is the cost variance‚ schedule variance‚ cost performance index (CPI)‚ and Schedule performance index (SPI) for the project? Answer a: Cost variance (CV) = Earned Value (EV) – Actual Cost (AC) CV = $100‚000 - $ 90‚000 = $ 10

WEEK FOUR DQ1 Explain the importance of random sampling. What problems/limitations could prevent a truly random sampling and how can they be prevented? Probability sampling‚ also known as random sampling‚ requires that every member of the study population have an equal opportunity to be chosen as a study subject. For each member of the population to have an equal opportunity to be chosen‚ the sampling method must select members randomly. Probability sampling allows every facet of the study population

IMPORTANCE OF STATISTICS In today’s world we are faced with situations everyday where statistics can be applied. Statistics can be used to determine the potential outcome of thousands of things where the human mind alone wouldn’t be able to. Statistics benefits all of us because we are able to predict the future based on data we have previously gathered. Being able to predict the future not only changes our lifestyle but also helps us be more efficient and effective. Statistics is the science of
